Summer Jobs Overview
Getting a summer job isn't just for staying busy or earning extra money when school is out. Summer jobs teach high school and college students life skills—money management, self-confidence, responsibility, and how to be part of a diverse workforce. The process of getting a summer job also helps students learn job skills like how to put together a resume and nail an interview. Companies looking for summer workers typically don't require any previous work experience, making this seasonal work perfect for students developing their resumes.
There are plenty of jobs available for students looking to work between school years. Summer break opens the doors to outdoor jobs like being a lifeguard, camp counselor, or caddy at a local golf club. Restaurant jobs are also popular and will help you develop customer service skills.
